# servant-js

![servant](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/haskell-servant/servant/master/servant.png)
|
|
|
|
This library lets you derive automatically Javascript functions that let you query each endpoint of a *servant* webservice.
|
|
|
|
It contains a powerful system allowing you to generate functions for several frameworks (Angular, AXios, JQuery) as well as
|
|
vanilla (framework-free) javascript code.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
